Your MasterClass MEL for Artists is really great, i just had an over look it but i feel its going to teach me all i need
i am student of Rigging, so i have really good intertest in Scripting
Before finding your page i had wrote some basic scripts pls have a look SIR and give your Feedback ::

However, the ‘CBdeleteConnection’ command doesn’t work when trying to ‘Break Connections’ using the Uni Attribute Tool. That kind of command is usually a high-level custom command generated by some of Maya’s UI. According to a CGTalk thread:

“CBdeleteConnection is a global proc that is contained in generateChannelMenu.mel in your maya/scripts/startup folder of your maya installation.
source generateChannelMenu.mel;
will put this proc into memory and get rid of your error.”

This command only gets ‘sourced’ into your scene/environment when you manually right click a channel in the channel box and choose break connections. This is not very reliable and you should probably use the much more reliable built-in MEL command disconnetAttr:
disconnectAttr pSphere1_scaleZ.output |pSphere1.scale.scaleZ;

This is going to take some string building though, which MEL is not that good for. You’re getting the first glimpse of the reason so many of us have moved up to Python. The sooner you are able to the faster you’ll be able to code. But stick with MEL as long as you need to in order to feel comfortable. Then work on python and then PyMEL versions of these 2 tools to get even better. Good luck. Keep it up,
